A series of abstract pics

iamasaint · 29th July 2003

Hi guys...my first serious attempt at abstract photography. Any comments will be greatly appreciated. These pics were all taken at Neo Tew Rd. The abandoned HDB estate.

I dont know about the technical stuff.. but artistically, you have done a great work

I like the first pic particularly.
I am really impressed.
You have the 'eye'.

i think the shots work together. they look like close-ups of parts of the estate. seen together, you can get a feel of the texture of the place.

the tile shots look a bit like mondrian.

singly, the shots don't seem that striking to me.

Hi...thanks for all your valuable comments. I have put them together thru photoshop. What do you guys think?

By the way...what is mondrian?

1. your pics are so large, take v long to download. maybe you could downsize them?

2. mondrian was an artist. mainly exploring colours, lines, proportions.

3. i think your pics have a gritty feel. thus the clean lines of your collage design (the black & red lines) don't really go with them. try something more rough-edged.

He is a abstract artist born in 1872-1944. Some of his famous work is the composition in colours and line ( The concept used in the city link underpass )
